Bucket List

Have you ever dreamt of going on an epic road trip? Just getting behind the wheel, hitting the open road, and discovering new adventures along the way? Well, a couple of years ago, my hubby and I did just that. We embarked on the road trip of a lifetime through New England, and made so many memories together.

Today on the blog, I’ll share with you the 5 simple…but very important…steps we took to plan our epic road trip. So, buckle up and grab a pen and paper. Let’s dream and plan your epic road trip together.

As 2017 is fast approaching, my mind has been reeling with everything I’d love to accomplish in the New Year. I’m a confessed serial goal setter, and barely ever see them to completion. I bet I’m not alone.

I love making New Years Resolutions. I love the feeling of a brand new beginning, and I love taking the time to jot down what I’d like to do, see, and conquer in the new year!

But, how do I…well…we ?…make measurable goals that we can keep and actually get to check off our to do list at the end of the year?

Well, I went to “All-Knowing” Pinterest to find out, and I’ve got the answers for you here! So, let’s get started on our New Years Resolutions/Goals for 2017, & make it our best year yet!

As Thanksgiving Day preparations are in full swing at our house, I can’t help but think about the very first Thanksgiving. On our recent Road Trip through New England, we spent a day exploring the rich history in Plymouth, Massachusetts. It was an unforgettable day, and definitely a must for anyone’s bucket list. I’d like to take you on a tour with me today of Plimouth Plantation, The Mayflower II, Plymouth Rock, Burial Hill, the Monument to the Forefathers, and more!

So, pull up a comfy chair, grab a pumpkin spice latte or hot cider, and take this trip with me back to the beginning of America and our very First Thanksgiving! The turkey day prep can wait a little while longer!

My sister and I have done 4 different Color Runs over the last few years. But, this fall was our first time ever trying the Glow In The Dark Color Run Night…and it was an absolute blast! It is an epic night filled with music and disco balls, bubbles, black head lights, hot pink tutus, and a ton of laughs! I loved it, and can’t wait to do it again next year!

I’ve been promising to share the details of our New England Road Trip with you, and here it is…the first of many posts about this awesome trip! This Road Trip ended up being the pinnacle of our Pre-Baby Bucket List Busting Year! Friends and family were so excited to share in this, and travel with us via social media, on our 8 state, 13 day, 3000+ mile journey through New England. I had friends begging me to share with them the itinerary and the details, on none other than a blog such as this, and here we are finally! So, let’s talk about our unforgettable day in Rhode Island. Enjoy…

As a proud Michigander, I am thrilled to see the revitalization of Downtown Detroit. If you live in the area, or are planning a visit, you have to visit the city. There are so many new businesses, restaurants, and shops. It’s a beautiful place to be. My sister and I saw that first hand during a visit to a pop up Luke’s Diner in Midtown and an afternoon spent at the DIA (Detroit Institute of Arts).

As I nestle into my comfy couch, with my second cup ‘o joe for the day and a brownie from Luke’s Diner, I am reminded how bucket list opportunities sometimes “pop up” when we least expect. And that is exactly what happened today.

If you haven’t heard yet, or been bombarded with pictures and status updates on social media, several coffee shops around the country today turned into Luke’s Diner from Gilmore Girls.

Last September…I can’t believe it’s already been a year…we were invited to tag along on a quick weekend trip to Chicago to celebrate our niece, Natalie’s, 8th birthday. There’s so much to see and do in Chicago! We LOVE the Windy City. Here’s what we did during this special weekend in Chi Town…

The Monthful Challenge is a concept I stumbled upon on a fellow bloggers page, and absolutely fell in love with the idea. If you have a Bucket List as long as mine, and have a hard time finding time to reach your goals, then you’ll really appreciate this challenge.
